Visiting Family

This past weekend, Annie and I went to Kingston and I got to see some of my family. On Friday evening we arrived, and Kyle showed me the Hearthstone beta. I really enjoyed it and am psyched to get into the game, when I get a key… On Saturday, we went to see Mark and… Read more
My Idea for Man of Steel 2

I’m not a huge DC fan. I am not the best qualified to write out a script for Man of Steel 2, and I don’t have any special information or knowledge about the direction they want to take, but I still feel compelled to share my ideas on what I consider an ideal Man of… Read more
Friday Office in Georgetown

One of my favourite things to do in Ottawa when I lived there was to attend Friday Office with Tom Leroux. Since moving to Georgetown, I’ve continued the tradition, but it has changed slightly. In Ottawa, it was mostly people attending to do work together and participate in the odd geeky conversation. In Georgetown, it… Read more
Second Class Supers – Page 58

Read Second Class Supers – Page 57 A feeling of heat spread across Kya’s cheeks. She forced herself to stand as straight as possible.

NaBloPoMo

Annie and I aren’t the type of writers that can push out 50,000 words of story in a single month. We’ve been working on Second Class Supers for over five months now. With that in mind, we’ve decided not to take part in NaNoWriMo, or the National Novel Writing Month. Instead, I’ve challenged Annie to… Read more

Over a thousand pages of specifications, diagrams and engineering notes were at his fingertips. The ship was sleek, a profile that reminded him of a mix of the Defiant class and Talon class and… Read more
Weight Watchers Update

Last night, Annie and I weighed in at Weight Watchers. After a horrible week of eating, I was still down 1.4 pounds, for a total weight loss since joining of 5.4 pounds in two weeks. If I can keep steady at a 1.5 pound loss per week, that would mean that I could lose 6… Read more

More Kickstarters I Wish I Could Fund

Back in May, I posted my first Kickstarters I Wish I Could Fund post, and I thought it was a good time to do another round-up as there are some great projects on the site worth funding today. I have invested in a number of projects, back when I had some cash flow to do… Read more
